Saying goodbye

Sep 13, 2008 Author: admin | Filed under: All Around Mom

to my flip-flops.  Now that we are about to get cooler weather after this storm just came through I realized that I am soon going to have to say goodbye to my beloved flip-flops.  I will take photos of my beautiful feet with my tan lines from my flip flops just to show you how much I love these shoes.  Man I should just move somewhere tropical where I never have to take them off.  I’m so sad now…want to move to Hawaii with me? :-p

Random things…1)I cry at movies and sometimes at commercials.

2)Don’t get me to talk about why I adore my husband…you may get a river

3)I love my fun and funky kiddos!

4)I have a handful of good friends who I know will always be there.  I have some awesome online friends that I would love to meet in person!

5)I love the outdoors - I grew up fishing with my dad.

6)I love to cook - it is relaxing to me.

7)My favorite food is Indian.  I’m always craving Kebab N Kurry.

8)I don’t drink alcohol.  I don’t have patience for drunks.  One of our dearest friends was killed by a drunk driver.

9)I love Coke (yes Coca-Cola - geesh)

10)I grew up with only 1 tiny bathroom in the house of 5 people.

11)My mother put me in a magnet school when they first open and I’m so very thankful she did!

12)I met my husband at a bar through a mutual friend.

13)I trust my husband completely.  Count your lucky stars if I trust you.

14)I work hard because I want my husband to finally rest after all the years of sacrifice he has done for me and our family.  He is an amazing man!

15)I’m close to my mom and talk to her as much as I can.  My dad is a big ole teddy bear!  The kids are always excited when they see them.  That goes the same for my husband’s dad and wife too.

16)I had my first job the day I turned 16.

17)My birthday is 6 days before Christmas and I hated it when people would give me one gift and say they combined it. Hey - I was a kid!

18)I played softball as a kid (through high school) but I sucked!  I played catcher - that part I was good at but couldn’t bat, run, or throw - see why I sucked

19)My kids play select and academy soccer in North Texas - both are lefties.  They don’t get their talent from me!

20)I love to travel. My favorite vacation has always been Kauai.  Stay at the Hyatt!

Ok…I think you get the jest of me.  :)

I wish my butt looked this good

So of course our beautiful Michael Kane gets me thinking about these hot jeans.  If only my butt looked this good.  I’m sure Mikey’s does so why not pay $200 if your hiney is rocking.  BUT what really got me thinking is we are hard working moms who do deserve to treat ourselves every once in a while.  So moms out there - go buy those awesome designer jeans, go to lunch with your best friends, treat yourself to a spa day…do it!  You deserve it!!!

Cute trash bags

Sep 4, 2008 Author: admin | Filed under: All Around Mom, Soccer Mom

OK…so I always keep a plastic trash bag in my car to throw away the gum wrappers, the straw covers when you go to the fast food place with the kiddos, the socks with holes in them…you know.  Well a designer from my consignment handmade shop designs the cutest little car trashbags.  So now I don’t have an ugly plastic bag but a nice bag that is machine washable.  So of course being the soccer mom, I had to buy the soccer mom trash bag.

Now if you are like my husband and eat your lunch in your car, I probably wouldn’t recommend throwing food in it unless your wife is going to wash it daily!  You might want this car console.
